Tom: F Afinação: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb F Am He said "Son, have you seen the world? Bb F Well, what would you say if I said that you could? Bb F Just carry this gun and you'll even get paid." C I said "That sounds pretty good." F Black leather boots Am Spit-shined so bright Bb F They cut off my hair but it looked alright Bb We marched and we sang F We all became friends C As we learned how to fight Dm A hero of war Bb Yeah that's what I'll be F And when I come home C They'll be damn proud of me Dm I'll carry this flag Bb To the grave if I must F 'Cause it's a flag that I love C And a flag that I trust F I kicked in the door Am I yelled my commands Bb The children, they cried F But I got my man Bb We took him away F A bag over his face C From his family and his friends F They took off his clothes Am They pissed in his hands Bb I told them to stop F But then I joined in Bb We beat him with guns F And batons not just once C But again and again Dm A hero of war Bb Yeah that's what I'll be F And when I come home C They'll be damn proud of me Dm I'll carry this flag Bb To the grave if I must F 'Cause it's a flag that I love C And a flag that I trust F Am She walked through bullets and haze Bb I asked her to stop F I begged her to stay Bb But she pressed on F So I lifted my gun C And I fired away Riff: F Am And the shells jumped through the smoke Bb And into the sand F That the blood now had soaked Bb F She collapsed with a flag in her hand C A flag white as snow Dm A hero of war Bb Is that what they see F Just medals and scars C So damn proud of me Dm And I brought home that flag Bb Now it gathers dust F But it's a flag that I love C It's the only flag I trust F Am He said, "Son, have you seen the world? Bb F Well what would you say, if I said that you could?"
